Survey Says . . . Juxtapositions

Every September the Board of Directors and Associates of The Haiku Foundation are sent a survey. Their responses help to guide our growth and direction. We’d like to broaden our input, and so we’ll be asking you to respond to a series of questions, one per week, over the next half-year. Your replies will be weighed in our assessment of our performance.

Today’s question: Have you had a look at the Foundation’s scholarly journal, Juxtapositions?

In May 2015 The Haiku Foundation launched the first journal of haiku research and scholarship in English, . We plan to release two issues per year beginning in 2016. Please have a look at it and tell us what you think.

Please assess how well The Haiku Foundation is delivering on this topic. Indicate your assessment of our performance to date by choosing one of the options:

Excellent

Good

Fair

Poor

Abandon

Please feel free to add additional comments. This is the last installment in our survey for 2015. Thank you for your thoughtful responses, which will help us make the Foundation a better resource for all of us.

  1. I was unable to activate an option response, but I downloaded the journal and my husband bound it for me. I am eager for more, but would also like it in paper. It’s too hard for me to read on line.

    Wonderful material.
    Thanks so much.

    1. Hi Jo, Thanks for responding to our survey!

      I’m not sure what you mean by “I was unable to activate an option response.” Would you be willing to say more about that?

  2. Not to detract from Juxtapositions, but readers should also check out the digital essay collection, reprints of haiku essays from years gone by in The Haiku Foundation Digital Essay Collection in the Digital Library. Currently, there are over 250 essays online and the number grows almost daily.

    1. Hi Garry, I saw that the Haiku Resources section of JUXTA mentions THF Digital Library. I noted this from my perspective as a volunteer in education. Since seeing this post by Jim Kacian, I’ve also been reflecting upon both the breadth and depth of the content at THF: from the Kindergarten lesson plan on the education page, to this new scholarly journal. All works together. Always good to highlight various programs and content again for new readers. Thank you.

    Fascinating and informative first issue. Hope it becomes regular.

    Also would like to see it come out on paper. Should be easy enough in this print on demand world.

  6. I was unable to select an option/response. Had I been able to respond above, I would have said “excellent”.
